i forgot, on any browser like internet explorer,firefox,opera is the same stupid thing...

First of all, if you leave P2P things running, it can slow down your connection because it is sharing your downloaded files with other people. Also, have you tried Google Chrome? It run's really fast on my wireless connection.

why do u need HUGE download speeds? Use download accelerator plus and turn off p2p and torrent programs when downloading from websites. if you wanna try your download speed, download something big from microsoft like win7 RC or Visual Studio 2010. My ISP speed is about 5MbS BUT all I got as a maximum is 600kBs

Internet is a tricky thing. I had a time when my internet provider got shut down and i barely got 5 kBs. Sometimes the companies run out of bandwith and do what theportalguy says. Google Chrome is very fast and I mean very very fast

hope this helps you

i dont know what it was but now its back to normal works great again..wonder how long

I know that with some connections (my friend's, for example), you can only download so much per month before you exceed your bandwidth limit. He can only download a 2GB Windows 7 ISO about twice a month, and then his download speeds are cut a lot, like what you were saying about yours. But sometime in the next month, everything goes back to normal.

Major offtopic, but anyway.

That's generally called a download limit. ISP's who have limits either "shape" (slow your net down) until the next billing month, or charge you extra per MB/GB. Some ISP's let you choose which one.

Each ISP is pretty much required to provide its users information in regards to how much they've downloaded, etc.
